The preservation and continuity of Bhutan and the Himalaya’s intangible heritage

Our Centre creates opportunities and educational programs available for monastics and non-monastics, both local and international, to ensure that the Himalayan Buddhist cultural and spiritual knowledge, wisdom and values are passed onto the next generation.

Conservation Workshops

Our monk conservators conduct 3 workshops annually that includes the first Scriptures Conservation Workshop in 2017, with monks from all over Bhutan, as well as our annual Caretaker Conservation and Preservation Workshops.
